Hi. I wasn't sure if your still doing any request. But I was hoping to get something with Ghiaccio. His crush askes him out on a date to the carnival. He's nervous at first because he wasn't expecting this to actually happen. But they both have a really good time. Going on rides, playing games, even seeing Ghiaccio win a cute prize for his crush. šā
Desiree, hello! :3 And sure thing! What a tender scenario, thank you for the prompt :,) And here we gooo! I hope youāll like it :3
Ghiaccio and his crushās first date at the carnival
(Under the cut for length!)
Melone tilted his head, looking at Ghiaccio with critical eyes for long moments, before nodding in approval. One last fix at the light blue shirtās collar, and he was finally satisfied with his work. Ignoring Ghiaccioās frown and grumblings, he dragged him in front of a mirror, with a satisfied smile. Ghiaccio grumbled again, at his limit, but he had to admit that Melone had done a good jobā¦ he was finally ready, for real, for his date! At least in appearanceā¦
āCāmon, it will be fine. Weāve talked about it, right? Itās normal to be nervous, and maybe the first minutes will beā¦ awkward, but youāll eventually relax and everything will be smoother. Just be yourself, alright? And donāt you dare to start with the ābut I am a shitā discourse, hm?- he said, anticipating Ghiaccioās words, -if they have accepted to go out with you, it means that they like you as you are. Maybeā¦ try to control a bit your temper, but do not change yourself. They like the you you already are.ā Melone said, while still dancing around him to fix the smallest details. It was the first date his friend had in ages; he wanted everything to be perfect!
āOh! And do not forget the flowers. Now go, or youāll be late!ā Melone pushed him out of the HQ, still giving advices and wishing him good luck. Ghiaccio sighed, when silence finally fell, as he walked to his destination: your house. He stopped a little at a flower shop to buy a nice bouquet of your favourite flowers, and then marched to your place, determined to make you live the best evening of your life. He will have tried his best!
He rang your bell door, swallowing, nervous. What if you had changed your mind? What if it was allā¦ a prank? What if he was just making himself ridiculous? Would you have thought bad of him? Made fun of him? His mind was still racing wildly when you came to open the door, with a big and relieved smile on your face. Yes, you were the one who asked him out, and yes, he accepted, but stillā¦ you feared he would have changed his mind last minute. But seeing him at your doorsteps, so gorgeous in his casual but fitting outfit, an adorable pout that was slowly melting into a more relaxed expression, with a beautiful bouquet in his hands finally tamed all your fears. Now it was time for fun!
āFor you.ā he grumbled, handing you the flowers, looking anywhere but at you while, you noticed with a silent gasp, a light blush creeped on his cheeks. You smiled, softened, taking gently the flowers, brushing his hands with the tips of your fingers. The blush on his cheeks became redder, but you didnāt notice it, as you were busy sniffing the flowers, happy. Your favouriteā¦
āThank you so muchā¦ I put them in a vase and Iāll be here in a second, ok? Donāt run!ā you said, daring to wink at him, vanishing inside your house again. Ghiaccio slowly let out his breath, now that your beautiful eyes werenāt on him. Oh god, it would have been more complicated than what he had thoughtā¦
Your arrival saved him again from more panicked thoughts. You smiled at him again, and his heart raced; how could he feel soā¦ so good, so happy just seeing you smile? Was it even possible?
He tried to relax, like Melone had suggested him. He wanted everything to be fineā¦ so, he tried to chat a little, feeling relieved when you answered with a smile. It was going well, it seemedā¦ you seemed to enjoy the time you were spending together. You even laughed a couple of timesā¦ it was making him feel good and comfortable. He was finally starting to loosen up, to your immense joy. It was incredibly warming to see him with a relaxed expressionā¦ he even seemed younger!
When you arrived at the carnival, your ultimate destination, you felt him tense again. He didnāt like crowdsā¦ you searched for his hand, and held it tight, when you found it. He turned to you, surprised and again red on his cheeks, and you just smiled at him, even if a blush was spreading on your face too.
āWeāll not get separated, in this way.ā you simply said, finally entering with him in a world made of fun, lights, food and joyous screams. Ghiaccio swallowed, clinging at your hand, but, the more he wandered around without being attacked or bothered, the more he started to relax, and he went back to chit chat with you, without letting go of your hand, to your joy.
When you saw him relaxed enough, you proposed him to try some of the rides, and you beamed in joy and surprise when, after the first roller coaster ride, you saw him laugh for real, as tension seemed to finally leave his body. There was nothing better to release all the tension than a good adrenaline rush! You never saw him soā¦ so normal. Like a young man who was, for once, enjoying a good and funny evening withā¦ his crush. You hid a smile, when you remembered that you were out on a date and not as friendsā¦
āOh, oh, Ghiaccio, look! The clay pigeon shooting! They always have such cute prizesā¦ā you sighed, with a smile, looking at the little stand where a lively little man was calling and inciting the crowd to try to win āwonderful, incredible, fantastic prizes!ā. Ghiaccio turned to you, looking at you for long seconds, before turning again to the stand.
āWhat prize do you want?ā he asked, quiet. You blinked, surprised, and turned at him. Was he serious?
āCāmon, G/N. What prize do you like the most?ā he asked again, looking at you with a small pout. You gulped down the surprise, looking again at the prizes neatly exposed. The ones you always liked always required a great shooting accuracyā¦
āThe white cat. I like that.ā you finally said, with a sigh. No way you would have ever won it, not even in a centuryā¦
āGood. Letās go, then.ā he pulled you to the stand, already studying the timing of the small targets. Nothing difficultā¦ at least, not for him. He was a hitman, after all and, even if he wasnāt a sniper, he was required to be a good shooter. He was sure he could do it!
āOne try, please.ā you looked at the small gun the man handed to Ghiaccio, while cheerfully inciting him. Ghiaccio looked at you again, and a small smile bent his lips, making you blush again. Was he really going to do it for youā¦?
āYouāll have your white cat.ā he promised, with a small nod, before pointing at the moving targets and shooting. One, two, four, six: with a lethal precision, all the blank bullets hit the targets. A small bell madly rang, loud and cheerful, and the man handed him the deserved prize, with a big smile and screamed congratulations. Ghiaccio grumbled a thanks, picking up the giant plushie, and, when the two of you were a little far from the chaos, he looked at you, blushing again. Oh, this was awkwardā¦
āErrā¦ for you.ā he murmured, handing you the plushie. You huffed a laugh, hugging the enormous and soft plushie, with a happy sigh. You still couldnāt believe itā¦ you looked at him, with a smile, and got on your tiptoes, giving him a peck on the cheek. When you drew back, he was blushing again like crazy, and your cheeks too felt warmer than usual.
āThank you, Ghiaccio, for the plushieā¦ and this incredible evening. I loved it.ā you said, suddenly shy. Was it too muchā¦? You wanted so much to invite him again, to have another date with him, butā¦ would have it been too daring to ask him soā¦?
āIā¦ I had fun too. Maybe weā¦ we could do it again, if you want toā¦?ā you gasped, incredulous. Ohā¦ you dared to look at him, and your heart melted when he saw his cute pout, his red cheeks and the way he was trying to keep it cool. How dared he to be so adorableā¦!
āYesā¦ Iād love it.ā you murmured, with a sweet smile mirrored in his face a moment later. As your first date slowly sided over, you couldnāt help but to smile and giggle in total bliss.
That first date had been a real success, and you couldnāt wait to go on a date again with him.
